Hama-san

Hama-san who greets everyone entering the Shiodome Building where the Family Mart was located.

A friend shared these 2 photos with me from their outing to Hamamatsu-cho (浜松町). Hamamatsu-cho Station on the Yamanote Line is undergoing redevelopment at the moment. A number of new buildings have sprung up on the North exit. You can walk from here down to Shiodome and also Hamarikyu.

A new style Family Mart here in Hamamatsucho. Almost looks like a no brand brand.

The monorail weaves its way along the road and then runs in front of the Shiodome Building. Very cool.Here comes the Monorail making its turn now.There is a nice sunken garden in between the Shiodome Building and the apartment towers along the walk towards Shinbashi.Bit of a low passage for the trucks here, particularly with the Shinkansen running above.

I have lots more photos from Hamarikyu, but here is a quick previewHamarikyu 浜離宮

Living and working in Shibuya for 20 years this city within the city of Tokyo is always surprising me with shops, trends and new places to visit. I hope to introduce you to many of those new and some of the old great places in Shibuya as well as touching on other Japanese related topics.
